Philippians 1:6-10

6For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until 1the day of Christ Jesus.

7 2For 3it is only right for me to feel this way about you all, because I 4have you in my heart, since both in my 5 6imprisonment and in the 7defense and confirmation of the 8gospel, you all are partakers of grace with me.

8For 9God is my witness, how I long for you all with the 10affection of 11Christ Jesus.

9And this I pray, that 12your love may abound still more and more in 13real knowledge and all discernment,

10so that you may 14 15approve the things that are excellent, in order to be sincere and blameless 16until 17the day of Christ;
